Barber already has four children with Ginny Cha, whom he left after 11 years of marriage while she was pregnant with their twin daughters in April 2010. At the time, rumors surfaced that Barber reportedly cheated on Cha with Johnson while he served as a Today show contributor and she was an NBC intern. Johnson also babysat for the pair's kids, A.J., 11, and Chason, 9.

"We were only friends when I was still married. I was separated, out of my house, so it wasn't until then that we took things to the next level," the former New York Giants player told Entertainment Tonight in August 2010.

Johnson added: "Tiki and I were romantically involved when he was separated, and plenty of people who are separated have boyfriends and girlfriends."
